Abstract: Let $A/mathbbQ$ be an abelian variety of dimension $ggeq1$ that is isogenous over $overlinemathbbQ$ to $E^g$, where $E$ is an elliptic curve. If $E$ does not have complex multiplication (CM), by results of Ribet and Elkies concerning fields of definition of elliptic $mathbbQ$-curves $E$ is isogenous to a curve defined over a polyquadratic extension of $mathbbQ$. We show that one can adapt Ribet's methods to study the field of definition of $E$ up to isogeny also in the CM case. We find two applications of this analysis to the theory of Sato--Tate groups: First, we show that $18$ of the $34$ possible Sato--Tate groups of abelian surfaces over $mathbbQ$ occur among at most $51$ $overlinemathbbQ$-isogeny classes of abelian surfaces over $mathbbQ$; Second, we give a positive answer to a question of Serre concerning the existence of a number field over which abelian surfaces can be found realizing each of the $52$ possible Sato--Tate groups of abelian surfaces.
